Threaded barrel

Featured Replies

So what the deal are they totally illegal? The law says this but some guns have theaded barrels with a muzzle nut and never had a flash hider produced for them. So would they be illegal unless the muzzle nut is welded or pinned?

 

 

A. semi-automatic rifle that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least 2 of the following:

 

a folding or telescoping stock;

a pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon;

a bayonet mount;

a flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and

a grenade launcher;

Hello, what are you trying to do? In many instances, a permanently attached muzzle brake or nut will make the barrel no longer threaded.

 

The matter you referenced is not NJ law, it was an ATF runing dealing with flashhiders, etc. I recall seeing that too but it wasnt in NJ.

That writing came from the NJ AG assault weapon clarification letter. I want to be able to use a blank adapter on the barrel threads. I would rather not internally thread the barrel.

Isn't it the number of evil features that matters, as M1A's (M14's) are legal with their flash suppressor's because they do not have pistol grips.

 

Just like my Yugo SKS has hoards of Evil Features because it has a fixed magazine.

It does but, how do you determine (a flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor)? If the gun never had a produced flash suppressor then it should be legal? But then again you could make one fot it illegal.

no.. you are reading too far into it, giving room where there is none.. trust me, this is NJ after all.. can you prove that there has NEVER been a flash suppressor made that would happen to fit that threading? obviously not.. if a firearm you are interested in has a threaded barrel.. imho you need to permanently attach something to it that is NOT a flash suppressor (a brake), or you run the risk of having stories written about you that talk about your crazy illegal assault rifles..

Assuming this is an AR, then I think you are correct, but if it doesn't have a pistol grip, the threaded barrel could be one permissible "Evil Feature"
